Screen not so responsive?? - Galaxy S II General

Heya, i think i have a problem with my gs2, basically when im scrolling it feels like it doesnt recognise my swipe until i get half way across the screen, well not so much half way across but it seems to lag and stutter a bit.
Is anyone else having this issue?? Is there anyway to correct it??
Im on ke7 at the moment, didnt wanna update cos ive got my 4th screen as default and apparently that trick dont work with newest firmware.
Its just a really niggly problem thats starting give me the 'ump.
Thanks

There's a touchscreen fix in the development section. Install the apk there and follow the instructions.

Ok thank u will download now, by the way, does upgrading the firmware get rid of this issue or is it handset related?

In fact it's a feature for better differentiate simple clicks from scrollings, so Samsung will probably have it in all his firmwares, and you'll have to install the fix on every wipe(it isn't permanent).

Well ive tried it and it still feels the same, quite juttery on homescreens??
App drawer and menu is fine its just a prob with the homescreen being juttery.

Try setting it to 5 instead of 0. See if that makes a difference

Touchscreen sensitivity

Does anyone have a flashable package that increases the sensitivity of the touchscreen?
Or would anyone be able to give me a quick rundown on how to adjust it?
I know there were a few values floating around a while back.
Thx in advance.
There is an app in the market, something like galaxy $ screen tuner, tho I can't remember its exact name

Thanks. Downloaded and am using it now. Dunno do I see much difference though. Using "optimized" and super optimized .
Anyone recommend settings with this app. ??
My main gripe with the screen is its not sensitive enough when texting fast.

I've been using gingerbread keyboard and smart keyboard pro and both react the same to my texting. I don't use swype.
I use since day one I got the SGS in june and can't operate the phone without. Superfine is good for me, but you can fiddle a bit to find settings that suit you. Too bad that pernament fix ain't possible yet.

sorry to drag this thread up again, but does anyone know how to change the sensitivity in gingerbread?

Need TW4 2.3.3

Hi all
I've upgraded to every version of 2.3.4 (leaked of course). But somehow my TW4 launcher homescreen pages stutter, more so when scrolling left to right. I don't know whether any of you have come across something like this coz I couldn't find such a problem in the ROM threads.
Well I could only think of one solution for this. Replace TW4 2.3.4 with 2.3.3. I don't know if it would work but that's my best bet.
In order for me to try this out can someone please upload the file with it's odex counterpart. I'm afraid I don't have it. Looked everywhere but couldn't find it.
Probably my last option would be to flash back to a 2.3.3 rom and get it from there. I hope you all would help me out before that.
Cheers

I had the same problem, the samsung task manger widget was the cause of the problem. Once removed it was super smooth....

Edit: Looks like you were right mate. I would like to test more though. Did you happen to come across a solution?

Unfortunately not my friend... I have learnt to press and hold the menu button, gaining access to the task manager that way.

Well thanks for your help mate. Still, if someone could share the old TW4 from 2.3.3 roms, I would like to give it a go. Never had such problems back then.

Download a custom 2.3.3 rom with TW4 and extract it .
Or search the dev threads where the old/removed apps are posted .
Might even be in Themes section .
jje
The problem with custom ROMS is that they are all deodexed. Since I'm using stock kg6, I don't think they're gonna work.
Maybe I'll try searching again when on my computer.
Cheers

I have a stutter on my menus, but not all the time.when it starts it makes the phone pretty bad to use.
Was thinking of upgrading from kf3 to kg6 to see if that helped. Factory reset didn't.
Maybe this task manager widget is causing my problems to too. But does your stutter happen only on home screen. When mine happens it affects everywhere.

I tried this customizable tw launcher before, probably an earlier version, but it just gave me constant crashes and freezes. The program monitor widget doesn't work on it. Needs a modified version of it.

Galaxy SIII swipe lock feature?

You mean something like this?:

P.S. It seems like the screen doesn't get locked if the screen is turned of from this app I mean it wont lock even the screen time out period passes.

If u continue searching for these proximity apps u will get many cool apps...u may get one that changes songs with proximity or if u want to turn on your screen with proximity then install smart screen on but it is useless and draws too much battery.
Just for information purpose I post this here.if u have any problem then tell me.I will remove this post.
Remember its not legal to download and use pirated apps.u must support the original developer by buying his app. Do not apply this method unless u are in danger to lose your life .
OK so here it is...
1.Google blackmart and download the appk.
2.install it.
3.u will get the paid apps free here.best pirated appstore after applanet)

[WIP 5/3/14] CSC Feature edits for GS5

CSC Features are cool because you can enable little features that are for whatever reason turned off by Samsung. Here are some that I have found across the internet.
A.) PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE MESSING WITH THIS!! Either make a backup in recovery, or make a backup of your feature.xml by copying the original/unedited to your SD Card.
B.) Download a root browser and grant it root permission.
C.) Go to system/csc/feature.xml
D.) Find the lines that you wanna change, and change it to what I have underlined/bolded. OR some are not in there and you can just add those lines right in (lines that are not in that can just be added will be highlighted in blue). Make sure the new lines are between <FeatureSet> </FeatureSet> . Now it's time for the features that can be enabled:
1. Enable call duration in call log: <CscFeature_Contact_DisableCallDuration>false</ (thanks to @eyecon82)
2. Enable camera shutter sound on/off menu: <CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
3. Add an exit menu to the stock web browser: <CscFeature_Web_AddOptionToTerminate>true</CscFeature_Web_AddOptionToTerminate>
4. Enable infinite scrolling in home screen and app drawer: <CscFeature_Launcher_DisablePageRotation>false</CscFeature_Launcher_DisablePageRotation>
5. Enable scheduled message: <CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMessage>true</CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMessage>
<CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMsgBox>true</CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMsgBox>
6. Enable prompt to select recording mode: <CscFeature_Camera_CamcorderEnablePromptPopupToSelectRecMode></CscFeature_Camera_CamcorderEnablePromptPopupToSelectRecMode>
7. Enables Rotation control icon in Gallery: <CscFeature_Gallery_AddAutoRotationIcon>true</CscFeature_Gallery_AddAutoRotationIcon>
8. Stock browser requests Desktop site by default: <CscFeature_Web_EnableDesktopSiteAsDefault>true</CscFeature_Web_EnableDesktopSiteAsDefault>
E.) When done make sure you save the changes, and reboot.
F.) ENJOY!
Gonna be working hard on this tonite peeps to ensure which ones are working and which are not... just gotta get thru stupid work first! -__-
Expect a nice update tonite peeps. PLEASE if you know anything about this stuff, feel free to add on!
Good stuff man! I did the shutter sound and exit on stock browser. I'm not sure if it pertains to what I did or if it would have any effect on it (I doubt), but I lost my ability to press and hold to get punctuation on my Samsung keyboard. Lol

I believe with original Touchwiz home, you have to MOD the TouchwizHome.apk to have infinite scroll through pages, as seen in MOD faster touchwiz launcher thread (see Index for easy link). Works from just apk push and no csc mod.
Also, here are the screenshots I promised. Says "null" for feature but my be able to MOD but wonder what it does...
